JUDGMENT
Dated this the 3rd day of November, 2021
The prayer of the writ petition is to direct the 2 nd
respondent not to interfere with the civil dispute between the
petitioner and 3rd respondent.
2. In short, the case of the petitioner is that he is a
tenant of the 3rd respondent. The petitioner is running a
vegetable shop. There exists dispute between the petitioner
and the 3rd respondent. The 2nd respondent is interfering in
the matter and pressurising the petitioner to settle the issue
with the respondent.
3. The learned Government Pleader filed a
statement in which it has been stated that the employees of
the petitioner were conducting the business and many
people in the locality gathered there and there was a
likelihood of law and order problem. In such circumstances,
it was necessary to close the shop for the time being and WP(C)No.19302/2021
the 2nd respondent asked to close the shop.
4. The very next day, the petitioner filed a complaint
against the respondents and thereafter the petitioner has
opened the shop and running the business. The 2nd
respondent does not intend to interfere in the disputes
between the petitioner and the 3rd respondent. However if
there is an issue of crime or of law and order, then the 2 nd
respondent will have to act in accordance with law.
In view of the statement so filed, the writ petition is
disposed of recording the submission of the 2 nd respondent
that he will not interfere in the civil dispute between the
petitioner and the 3rd respondent. However the 2nd
respondent will be free to interfere if there is a likelihood of
law and order problem or any instance of crime.
